Know before you buy
This limited edition model features a unique sand-toned finish and a distinctive 3D studded ceramic bowl. While it offers the same performance as the classic 4.8L tilt-head mixers, its aesthetic is designed specifically for those who want a statement piece on their countertop.
Yes, the ceramic bowl is built for durability and is designed to handle the rigors of daily mixing. However, because it is ceramic, it is heavier than stainless steel and should be handled with care to avoid chipping or cracking if dropped.
Yes. This mixer features the standard attachment hub, making it compatible with the full range of KitchenAid optional attachments, such as pasta rollers, food grinders, and spiralizers.
The stainless steel wire whisk, dough hook, and flat beater are all dishwasher safe for easy cleanup. We recommend checking the manual for specific placement instructions to keep them in top condition.
Planetary mixing ensures the beater spirals to at least 59 touchpoints around the bowl. This provides thorough ingredient incorporation, meaning you rarely need to scrape down the sides of the bowl manually.
No, this mixer does not feature a dedicated pulse function. Instead, it offers 10 precise speed settings that allow you to manually control the mixing intensity from a slow stir to a fast whip.
